Paint the Point! Capturing the Beauty of Brookwood Point

The call to artists was simple: Come spend an August weekend painting en plein air. 

Some twenty-five artists came to capture Brookwood Point’s gardens and lake views in a variety of media and styles. The artworks were reviewed by guest judges and many of the pieces were then exhibited at the Cooperstown
Art Association. 

“Paint the Point” was made possible by an Otsego County Community Events grant. Many thanks to the Cooperstown Art Association for valuable insights and the use of their exhibit space. L.M. Townsend Catering and Stagecoach Coffee kept the artists happy and well fed. Discount coupons for Canoe & Kayak Rentals and art materials donated by Golden Paints were among the perks for participants. 

Make plans to join us next year!
